Bug summary

When trying to run plt.show the graph isn't being shown and instead the following error is raised:
'NoneType' object has no attribute 'pyplot_show'

Code for reproduction

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
# from tests import generate_fake_data
x = [i for i in range(10)]# generate_fake_data.generate_time_data()
y = [i for i in range(10)] # list(np.random.rand(10))
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, y, linewidth=2.0)
plt.show()

Actual outcome
